Organizations are adopting a ‘hybrid-first’ approach, balancing on-premises and cloud environments for greater flexibility and cost efficiency. This shift, driven by security and data sovereignty concerns, is redefining the traditional reliance on cloud services.
In this second installment of our blog series on creating a secure DBaaS, we delve into the evaluation and selection of Wazuh, a self-hosted open-source SIEM/SOAR solution. We detail the its deployment within YugabyteDB’s infrastructure, including its integration into our production database nodes and how it captures data from various cloud service providers for comprehensive security monitoring.
At Yugabyte, we embarked on securing our fully managed DBaaS by evaluating and implementing the right SIEM/SOAR solutions. This 1st blog of a series details the first part of our journey, from outlining requirements to the challenges of finding the right SEIM tool.
The cloud revolution, initially promising for application scaling, falls short in database scalability, facing challenges with concurrent user management and processing. To truly harness cloud benefits and meet peak demands, organizations must consider horizontally scalable, cloud-native databases over traditional, monolithic SQL systems.
YugabyteDB’s Change Data Capture (CDC) capabilities are pivotal for streaming applications. A large brokerage firm achieved significant performance gains with Yugabyte CDC, while a major streaming media company utilized CDC to migrate from MySQL, enhancing system resilience and service delivery.
The rise of streaming data is reshaping analytics, disaster recovery, and IoT, driving the need for real-time data architectures. YugabyteDB meets this demand by enhancing streaming patterns, facilitating immediate data synchronization and supporting high-throughput transactional workloads for modern applications.

YugabyteDB Managed enhances its Azure offering with new security features like encryption at rest using Customer Managed Keys (CMK) with Azure Key Vault and Single-Sign-On (SSO) integration using Microsoft Entra ID. Additionally, it introduces flexible read replicas for cost-effective, region-specific scaling and new Azure tutorials to aid developers in application building.
In 2024, data management will be significantly impacted by AI advancements, increasing DBaaS adoption, and a shift towards private cloud usage. AI will enhance IT strategies and database performance, while DBaaS offers operational efficiency and private clouds provide cost-effective solutions for steady-state workloads.
